Promotion of independent, good quality information on land value and the cash
economy, and the costs and benefits of varieties of cash crops, including oil palm.
2. Retaining control of and independent development on customary land, avoiding
grossly undervalued leases (i.e. 20-100 Kina per hectare per year) and avoiding other forms
of alienating valuable customary land.
3. Development of combinations of domestic and export cash crops at family and village
levels. This means crops specifically designed for market and not just the sale of excess
garden food. The domestic crops (eg. peanut, buai, cucumber, fruits) allow a far better share
in the value chain, especially when the market or roadside is close; supplementary export
crops (eg. cocoa, vanilla) allow access to a broader market. The highest incomes for small
farmers have not come from oil palm farmers, but from those who successfully cultivate and
market 3 or 4 cash crops, often 2 domestic and 2 export crops.
4. Development of marketing cooperatives to reclaim greater value shares amongst
export crops such as coffee, cocoa and vanilla, and avoid middleman ‘taxation’.
5. Development of local customary landowner-led collaborations in land care and
environmental management. This could include local plans for regulating and prohibiting
pollution of rivers, soil and groundwater.
